Carpenter & Joiner in Brixham

Brixham's our closest neighbour — about ten minutes down the coast from our Paignton base. We've worked all over the town, from the cottages tumbling down towards the harbour to the bigger family homes up by Berry Head. A lot of Brixham carpentry work is in holiday accommodation and rental properties where things wear out fast and turnarounds matter.

Local area

About working in Brixham.

Brixham's a working fishing port with a tourist economy layered on top — which means the property mix is either Victorian fisherman's cottages or modern flats designed for letting. We handle both. The harbour-side cottages need careful door rehanging, sympathetic frame repair and floor-level adjustments after centuries of settling. The newer flats and holiday lets need fast turnarounds — internal doors, fitted wardrobes, kitchen repairs between bookings.

From our Paignton base: roughly 10 minutes (5 miles). We can usually be on-site for a quote within 24 hours.

  • Jamie Hollingworth23/03/2026

    Reece is a local carpenter who is very reliable, respectful and trustworthy. I had 7 internal doors replaced which were not the easiest as all the frames were far from straight. Reece done an excellent job to over come this and finished the job to a high standard. Highly recommend him.

  • Samantha B09/03/2026

    6 doors fitted by Reece. More than happy with the with the job. Tidy worker Reece always tidied up

  • Rob Smith27/01/2026

    We have just had all of our internal doors replaced. From the first visit, to quote and installation the communication was great. Reece was always punctual, cleaned up at the end of the day and has done a fantastic job - a really great tradesman, I can’t recommend him highly enough.

  • natalie Boyd15/12/2025

    Great job, very efficient, and left the house spotless, cupboard doors look amazing.

  • Tom Cobos15/11/2025

    We urgently needed a new door for the guest toilet after having to get rid of the old one, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From start to finish, Reece was professional, efficient, and incredibly attentive to detail. He listened to everything we asked for—including fitting the lock exactly as needed—and made sure the space was spotless when he finished. It’s rare to find someone who works this quickly and carefully. We’re so glad we chose the right person for the job!

  • Leanne Jordan14/11/2025

    We couldnt be happier with Reece. His work is FANTASTIC! He is such a hard worker, such a lovely chap. I would recommend him to everyone. He has done a stunning job on our media wall. Thank you so much!

  • Sara Welsman13/03/2024

    Reece was fantastic! Quick response to my initial enquiry and attended the same day to carry out remedial problem following a “repair “ carried out by a different carpenter two weeks ago. My large kitchen wall cupboard is now firmly fixed and safe to use. Reece was friendly, efficient, professional, inexpensive and left everything tidy. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again. Thank you so much.

  • Brandon de Escofet28/02/2024

    Reece fitted us a brand new kitchen and did an outstanding job back in August 22. Is friendly, reliable and very professional. A few issues arose during the fit and reece found solutions for all of them, he overcomes all problems and gets the job done to a very high standard! Very pleased!

  • sonia johnson22/02/2024

FAQ · Brixham

Common questions from Brixham.

  • How long does it take you to get to Brixham?

    About ten minutes from Paignton. We're often on the road within an hour for emergency repair calls and we can normally start non-urgent jobs within the week.

  • Do you work on holiday lets and Airbnbs in Brixham?

    Yes — a lot of our Brixham work is in short-term let properties. We can co-ordinate around bookings and turn jobs around fast between guests.

  • Can you handle the steep narrow lanes near the harbour?

    We deal with that every week. We bring what we need on the day, find a sensible spot to park, and ferry materials by hand if we have to. It's normal for Brixham.

  • Do you do small jobs or only full installs?

    Both. A single dropped door, a wonky shelf, a broken lock — happy to come out and quote. No minimum charge.
